 You must remain adjacent to the foe, and your movement provokes attacks of opportunity as normal unless you succeed at the appropriate [[priority:skills:acrobatics|Acrobatics]] checks. If your first attack against the foe hits, you are considered to be flanking the foe on your second attack. Subsequent attacks made as part of the full-attack action continue to be treated as if you were flanking the foe until one of your attacks misses, at which point your attacks are treated normally. Such subsequent attacks allow you to apply Sneak Attack to the targeted creature. You must remain adjacent to the foe, and your movement provokes attacks of opportunity as normal unless you succeed at the appropriate [[priority:skills:acrobatics|Acrobatics]] checks.
